Wasn't there a deal reached where it was going to be a parking lot until they deemed it ready to be developed?

Those windows will provide lovely views of the new gravel parking lot being built.

Our history ... tear down old and/or historic buildings, leave lot vacant for a long time or turn into a parking lot and repeat. How do you think we got so many empty lot downtown?

This building is what makes a warehouse district such a thing. It's the exact same building as the one a block west (Campio). Disappointing a similar use wasn't possible and a loss for the warehouse vibe on 104st.

I believe the front and north facades are being retained while parking is added?

^ That's the line that came from the Developers pre-'O. Apparently at that earlier time they were woking on a scheme that was going to awe us.

So Ian, why are we in a hurry to smash this down? Imminent construction of Ice Tower#1? Or rather just a measly few bucks to be made off of parking revenue?

Now that they’re not working right next to people’s homes they’re making more progress on the demolition.

A LOT of wood (fir?) in this building and large beams.

Another shot from this evening, with the sun lighting up what was hidden in the shadows before and some more progress

The West facade, taken yesterday. Would be fantastic if this could get incorporated in the base of whatever ends up being built there.

Ian, comments, questions or concerns about this lot and it's future home of Westrich's Ice Tower #1?

I really hope so.

Wouldn’t they need some sort of support structure in place by now?
